Song of Ice n Fire series is pretty sweet. Game of Thrones is a good book. The only complaint I have about the book is how the chapters are major characters and their perspectives. So, if you like say, Tyrion Lannister or Jon Snow, the chapters are pretty sweet to read. There are more dialogues n characters within the book than the HBO show could realistically offer. However, if you loathe characters like...Sansa and find yourself turning the former chapter to her you want to just skip it outright lol.
I feel the exact same way. It's like Martin just wants you to skip some chapters because the character is a fucking idiot and you don't care. It's like I find Cersei boring as fuck and I don't want to know what she is doing because she is always complaining about her son.
